Contributions to Editorial Decisions

Peer reviews help editors in making editorial decisions and through the editorial communication with the author can also help writers improve their papers. Peer reviews are an important component of formal scientific communication and are at the core of the scientific method.

Confidentiality

Reviewers must save documents received as confidential documents. They may not share reviews or information about the paper to anyone or contact the author directly without permission from the editor.

If the reviewer suggests that the author include a quote into the work of the reviewer (or partner), this must be for genuine scientific reasons and not with the intention of increasing the number of review citations or increasing the visibility of their work (or their partners)).
